By default, all the files you download in Safari go to the Downloads folder. But if you want to change the default file download location; there is an option to let you get it done easily.

I prefer to save files to my separate folder as it makes a bit easy for me to access them. The desktop is also a good location to keep any file since you can instantly access and get rid of it whenever you want.
